Chapter 206

At the same time, the three girls were laughing and chatting as they ate in the living room.

Then there was a ding. A message popped up on Ava’s computer. The next second, the computer screen turned black, leaving only three words on the loop. “You’re a noob.”

These three words filled the screen and spun non-stop. It was so fast that it made them dizzy. It was difficult to ignore these three words.

Sherri seemed to have discovered a whole new world. She was even more excited than Ava. She threw the chips on the coffee table and plopped down beside Ava. “Ava, destroy him”” she urged. “This guy is too smug. He actually called you a noob.”

Ava was also feeling competitive. She tossed aside the chips and finished her drink. Then she wiped her hands clean and rolled up the sleeves of her pajamas, preparing to fight back.

She placed her hands on her hips and puffed up her checks like a pufferfish. “He actually called me a noob,” she huffed angrily. “Tm so angry. I hate him so much.”

No one was allowed to call her a noob. Absolutely not.

Natalie supported her head with her hand and looked at the two excited girls. Then she looked at the time and saw that it was almost midnight. These two people were extremely spirited. It seemed like they would not be able to sleep if they did not destroy the other side tonight.

So this was what hackers were like. They attacked each other and kept hacking each other’s computers. Wouldn’t it be easier to just press the power button?

If she was hacked countless times in one night, she suspected that this laptop would be useless. What a pitiful laptop.

Just as she was thinking about it, a text message came in from WhatsApp. It was from Chameleon. [What are you doing?]

Natalie glanced at the message and then looked up at the two people who were fighting seriously. She shook his head helplessly and replied. [Watching cats catch mice.)

Chameleon sent a question mark and then another message. [Isn’t your son sleeping at this time? Why are you still watching cartoons?]

Natalie wanted to laugh when she saw the message. This was not a cartoon; it was the real-life version. Besides, Jasper did not watch animal cartoons. He liked to watch Scooby-Doo

Natalie was very curious whenever Jasper watched the animations. Did the little guy understand it or was he just attracted by the images?

However, the words “your son” in the text message made her uncomfortable. What did he mean by her son? She replied, [Yes, the son is mine.]

The other party was silent for a long time before replying with a smiling emoji. [He’s mine too.]

Then, another message came. [Tell him to sleep earlier. Watching this kind of cartoon at night will affect his 1Q1

Natalie didn’t know how to reply. The “cats” in question were both highly intelligent.

Moreover, the unknown ‘mouse’ was also highly intelligent. Otherwise, how could they fight with Ava for multiple rounds?

Ava held her breath and pouted. She angrily unlocked the lousy thing that the other party had set up for her on the laptop. It took her a long time to recover the computer. The next second, she attacked the other party’s computer without taking a break.

This atmosphere infected Sherri Not only was she a hundred times more energetic, she did not even yawn once.

It was the same at Lithern Club. The men were looking at their watches in the same position.

They were taking bets.

Just as Frank was about to retaliate, Hackett set up a casino nearby. The venue was Frank’s desk. The bet was on time. Whoever made the closest guess to the time would win.

The bargaining chip was the cost of each other’s wedding.

Jim didn’t have the money to participate, so he chose to withdraw. No matter which guy here got married, it would be quite

expensive. Jim could only afford it if they agreed to hold a banquet in a rural village. Otherwise, he would sit out on the game. He did not want his hard-earned money to be gone in one night.

up

A small bet was good for the mood, but a big bet was bad for health. This was what the villagers said. He could build his wealth for a lifetime and lose it in one day.

Frank also participated. He said the hacker would take at least six hours because he was confident in his skills.

Hackett did not trust Frank very much. In addition, he was unfamiliar with this industry, so he guessed that it would take

Trevon thought back to the 38th floor and said “One hour” with a faint smile. His guess was the shortest.

Firstly, the stakes were a little high. Secondly, everyone was very curious about how long the other party would take to resolve the problem. This made them super excited as well.

Unexpectedly, the other party only used 52 minutes. It was less than one hour and it was a pretty good number too.

Hackett raised his hand and glanced at his wristwatch. Then, he looked at the screen full of words. Just one look was enough to trigger his trypophobia.

“You’re all noobs” He couldn’t count how many times these words were repeated on the computer screen, but it was definitely a lot.

The hacker seemed to be afraid that they didn’t know what “noob” meant. Between the words, the hacker added some cartoon images too, Frank’s temple pulsed, and his tongue fiercely pressed against his cheek. He gritted his teeth. This was the first time someone dared to provoke him like that.

He was courting death.

Hackett looked at the screen full of words and cartoon images. They were quite difficult to ignore. He silently began to worship pasta. He repeated the words on the computer, “Mr. Roberts, they said you’re a noob.”

“Am I illiterate, or am I blind?” Frank growled, venting his anger at Hackett. “I don’t need you to read it for me.”

Hackett looked aggrieved. ‘Don’t shoot the messenger. I was just trying to help. If you’ve been defeated by someone, you can retaliate again. What’s the use of venting your anger on me? I can’t help you even if I want to.”

“I wouldn’t count on you if I counted on an actual noob.”

Frank was also bewitched by this screen full of noobs.

Trevon stared at the few words on the computer screen. His eyes darkened and the smile on his lips instantly widened. “Frank, you’re in for it.

Frank ignored Trevon’s words. Right now, he only wanted to capture this troublemaker.

Trevon, who needed to be invisible, suddenly said to Hackett. “Tim going to visit your grandpa’s grave tomorrow.”

A second ago. Hackett was still immersed in the screen full of the word “noob.” The next second, the conversation changed

to be about cemeteries

It was a pretty big difference.

For the past few years, Trevon had visited his grandfather’s grave annually. But why? “You’re not joking, right? Why don’t you go to your grandmother’s place? Why do you always go to my grandfather’s place?”

Frank was busy, but he still took the time to explain, “Obviously, he has ulterior motives, understand?”

Hackett was enlightened. “Natalie is going to visit the grave tomorrow?”

Trevon’s silence said it all. He picked up his coat from the rack and headed out. “I’m leaving. I’ll go to the cemetery on time

tomorrow.”

After taking two steps, he turned around and said to the two people who had lost. “Stay behind and discuss who will pay for my wedding.

Then, he looked at Frank meaningfully and said. “Do you want to go with me tomorrow?”

Frank did not stop what he was doing. He said indifferently, “My grandparents aren’t there.”

Trevon smirked. ‘Maybe the person you’re looking for tonight is there.”

With that, he strode away.

Tonight, Trevon was in an unusually beautiful mood, Not only did it add a little interest to life, but he also won money for his wedding

He had to think about how to prepare in advance. Since someone was paying, he had to hold a grand wedding. He still owed Natalie a romantic wedding and had to make up for it.

Frank frowned and wondered if the reason for hacking his computer at night was because he had captured the Turner family’s bodyguard back then.

He felt wronged. It was Trevon who insisted on making his presence known and wanted to make the Turner family’s people appear. It was none of his business. It wasn’t like he was the one who stabbed the bodyguard. He quite liked that Ethan, but he wouldn’t be able to take Ethan under his wing.

And now, the word “noob” kept echoing in his mind.

The next day, everyone in Grand Manor had already woken up and washed up. Only Ava was still dawdling

This girl had fought on the laptop for countless rounds last night and only fell asleep in the wee hours of the morning. She really couldn’t stand it anymore and sent the other party a code to promise to fight again next time.

Joseph frowned and said surely, “Ava, did you attack someone’s computer again last night?”

Ava, who was caught red-handed, slipped into the bathroom in her slippers. “No, I didn’t. I was very obedient. I stayed up late chatting with Natalie and Sherri last night.”

Joseph turned his gaze to Natalie’s face. The meaning was obvious. He wanted Natalie to spill the beans.

Natalie was intimidated by her brother’s questioning gaze, but she couldn’t betray Ava, so she could only lie. “Ava was really just having a late-night snack with us and talking about her university.”

Joseph kept looking at her. His expression basically said, “Do you think I believe you?”

Natalie awkwardly touched the back of her neck and kicked the focus to Sherry. “It’s true, right, Sherri?”

“Why did you have to drag me into your lies?” Sherri thought inside. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

In Natalie’s mind, she thought that Sherri was in it with them and couldn’t escape unscathed.

Sherri forced a smile and lied through her teeth. Joseph, Natalie is right. We talked too much last night.”

But this was Joseph. He was the best at reading people’s expressions. He had long seen through their little tricks, but he did not expose them. After all, they were putting so much effort into their act.

Not long after, Ava got dressed. She held Natalie and Sherri’s hands. “Let’s go.” She did not dare to look at his brother’s eyes and looked down at the floor instead.

They arrived at the cemetery.

Joseph, Natalie, and Emma Turner were all wearing black dresses, while Sherri was wearing white. She felt that all black was a little too dull, as if she was attending a funeral.

Joseph stood at the side with Jasper in his arms. His gaze was on Jenny’s tombstone. When he saw the woman’s name, his eyes darkened.

However, he didn’t feel anything when he looked at the tombstone. To him, it was just full of scheming.

The few of them put away the flowers they had brought and bowed to the tombstone.

Natalie squatted down and said to the tombstone, “Grandpa, I brought Uncle Daniel and the others to see you. You can rest assured now. I’m not alone anymore. I have many family members who love me.”

She took Jasper from Joseph’s hands. ‘Grandpa, this is your great-grandson. His name is Jasper Wilson. Are you happy for me? You don’t have to worry about me. I’m fine and happy now. Please be well too.”

The others did not say anything throughout the entire process. Ava and Sherri turned teary-eyed. Emma walked to Natalie’s side and patted her shoulder. “The most difficult times have passed. You have to live a happy life in the future. Your grandfather will only be at ease if you live well.”

Natalie nodded with tears in her eyes. Her aunt was right. She was very happy now. She had a family who loved her, a cute son, and…

Daniel, who had been silent all this while, spoke up now. “Don’t worry,” he said solemnly to the tombstone. “In the future, Natalie will be protected by us, the Turner family. She will never be hurt again.”

After staying for more than half an hour, they bowed to the tombstone again.

Memories flashed past Natalie’s mind like a slide show as she stood in the cemetery. Scenes played one after another as she recalled the past over and over again. Her grandpa’s smile remained in her heart.
